3 things you need to know HUNDREDS STRANDED IN NC FLOODS AFTER HURRICANE MATTHEW

1

Hundreds of people were rescued by boat and helicopter as floodwaters inundated North Carolina towns in the wake of Hurricane Matthew, and officials warned that life-threatening flooding from swollen rivers would continue for days. In the United States, the number of fatalities rose to at least 23, with nearly half in North Carolina. North Carolina’s skies were clear on Monday after the state received as much as 18 inches of rain from Matthew over the weekend, but raging rivers and breached levees posed major problems. REUTERS

TOP COURT DECLINES TO HEAR TOBACCO ARBITRATION DISPUTE

2

The Supreme Court on Tuesday let stand lower court rulings allowing Pennsylvania and Maryland to keep tens of millions of dollars in a dispute with tobacco companies involving the massive 1998 settlement over deceptive marketing and advertising of cigarettes. The justices declined to hear appeals, filed by Reynolds America Inc., Altria Group Inc. and other companies that were part of the settlement, of rulings that had favored Pennsylvania and Maryland regarding the amount of the annual payment that those states should receive under the deal. The dispute centered on the 2003 annual payment that companies that participated in the settlement were required to make to the various states as part of the deal. An arbitration panel found that six states, including Pennsylvania and Maryland, had not met their side of the bargain to ensure, as required, that companies that were part of the settlement did not disproportionately lose market share as a result of the terms of the deal to competitors that shunned it.

SAMSUNG SCRAPS GALAXY NOTE 7 OVER FIRE CONCERNS

3

Samsung scrapped its flagship Galaxy Note 7 smartphone on Tuesday less than two months after its launch, dealing a huge blow to its reputation and outlook after failing to resolve safety concerns. Samsung announced the recall of 2.5 million Note 7s in early September following numerous reports of the phones catching fire and on Tuesday it finally pulled the plug on the $882 device in what could be one of the costliest product safety failures in tech history. The decision to scrap the Note 7 came after fresh reports of fires in replacement devices prompted new warnings from regulators, phone carriers and airlines. REUTERS METRO’S NEWS QUIZ

New York City’s new most expensive neighborhoods might surprise you A new ranking of the 50 most expensive sections of New York City shows big shifts in sales patterns. AMANDA MIKELBERG @MetroNewYork

amanda.mikelberg@metro.us

Buyer bewealthy. Some surprising New York City neighborhoods surged to the top of the list of the city’s priciest dwellings between July and September 2016, according to property research firm Property Shark. The “Top 50 Most Expensive Neighborhoods in NYC Q3” list shows the changing real estate landscape of a city in which once-unpopular neighborhoods are suddenly all the rage. “The way to think of this housing boom of the last four years is an outward radial push from Manhattan to brownstone Brooklyn and beyond to other boroughs and suburbs,” real estate consultant Jonathan Miller told Metro. Chic areas in Manhat-

tan still round out the top-three spots: Tribeca and SoHo remain lofty as the top two, with median sale prices of $4.44 million and $3.6 million respectively. Sale prices in both increased by more than 20 percent since last year. NoHo placed third and actually saw the typical sale price dip 46 percent since last year, to $2.66 million. Dumbo landed in fourth place. Homes sold for around $2.5 million, which is a 54 percent increase from last year. The jump is being attributed to a luxury development at 1 John Street that sold 30 units in three months at no less than $2.2 million. Dumbo’s place on the list is unusual because outer-borough neighborhoods generally do not out-price Manhattan’s notoriously pricey sections such as Greenwich Village, which is ninth on the list with a median sales price of $1.65 million. “Brooklyn is no longer seen as the cheaper alternative. It’s Manhattan’s direct competitor. It’s its own brand,” said Miller. “Queens is the new Brook-

lyn. The Bronx is the new Queens.” Another example of an outer-borough neighborhood that spiked is Forest Hills Garden — the rather exclusive area of Queens with large, private homes. The neighborhood ranked 11th on the list of 50 with a median sale price of $1.56 million, above both midtown Manhattan and the Upper West Side. It’s not that Manhattan has gotten less popular; explosive population growth (five years ahead of Census projections), as well as job growth (NYC currently has the highest amount of employees in history) has more people with fewer housing options, which skews the supply-demand dynamic toward luxury, Miller explained. Miller also pointed out that the numbers on this quarter’s list are wildly skewed because of new housing developments that go up and then sell out in one quarter. “It means that a ton of property, or none, closed in that quarter. It does not mean that prices have permanently changed somewhere and that people are

facing massive depreciation.” Another eye-popper is Roosevelt Island with a median sale price of $1.08 million, which represents a 128-percent increase from last year. It’s the biggest price jump on the list. Property Shark asserted that the increase is attributed to a lower number of transactions and influenced by co-op sales at two new developments, Island House and Riverwalk Court. Areas that traditionally boast astronomical sales prices also became pricier: Greenwich Village saw a 61 percent year-to-year increase in the typical sales price to $1.65 million and Central Midtown recorded a 41 percent increase to $1.3 million. Some neighborhoods retained their mostexpensive status despite a decrease in the median sale price. NoHo, ranked high at the No. 3 spot, dropped 46 percent from last year — the typical sale dipped from $7.6 million to $2.66 million. However, the figure is based on only six sales.

NEW YORK

CUNY, SUNY presidents step down amid different federal investigations Alain E. Kaloyeros is one of nine Cuomo associates implicated in the pay-to-play scandal.

“I recognize that my continued leadership would pose a distraction from SUNY Poly continuing its good work.”

AMANDA MIKELBERG @MetroNewYork

It’s been a tough week for a couple of New York public university presidents. Both Alain Kaloyeros, president of SUNY Polytechnic Institute and Lisa Coico, the president of CUNY, quit amid unrelated investigations. Kaloyeros, an admired nanotechnology whiz and economic development leader, was president and CEO of SUNY Polytechnic Institute in Utica from January 2015 until Tuesday morning. In September he was one of nine charged in the massive bribery and fraud scandal that quaked the administration of Gov. Andrew Cuomo. “I recognize that my continued leadership would pose a distraction from SUNY Poly continuing its good work,” he wrote in his resigna-

Century Foundation, which raises money for CUNY, reports by The New York Times revealed. The money, which is said to have been spent on housekeeping, furniture and food, including organic glazed nuts, was in turn

reimbursed by another foundation that controls research funds for the entire CUNY system, according to reports. The Times had questioned the veracity of an internal memo about the reimbursements, as

The victim, 28, was jogging near East Drive at 107th Street at about 9:30 p.m. when she was grabbed from behind and thrown to the ground. The attacker then dragged her into a wooded area where police said he punched her, kicked her in the head and attempted to molest her. He took her iPhone out of her pocket and ran, police said.

The issues regarding Coico’s expenses are said to date back to 2011, when the college had begun to itemize more than $155,000 of her spending in three categories: college, personal and “iffy,” the Times reported. CUNY’s general counsel ordered her to repay $51,000, which she did, but there are outstanding balances.

New Yorkers might have a new wave of food trucks and carts on the streets soon, as the City Council considers legislation to gradually double the number of food vendor permits issued by the city. The proposal calls for spreading the new permits over seven years, giving 600 more street vendors the right to start doing business legally each year, The New York Times reported. The city’s Health Department has kept the number of permits it issues at about 4,235 since the early 1980s. The cap has prompted many venders to resort to buying permits on

a black market, where the full-time permits can cost as much as $25,000, the Times reported. Street vendors currently pay $200 for a

city permit that can be renewed indefinitely. The proposed legislation would hike the fee to $1,000 for a two-year permit. Council Speaker

Melissa Mark-Viverito and several council members are sponsoring the legislation as a means of curtailing the black market for permits. GARY KANE

Russian woman who accused Eliot Spitzer of assault busted for trying to extort him Police said the 25-year-old was trying to squeeze $50,000 from the former governor. NIKKI M MASCALI @MetroNewYork

nikki.mascali@metro.us

The notorious Russian woman who accused former Gov. Eliot Spitzer of assaulting her was arrested Monday night after returning to the country and allegedly attempting to extort $50,000 from him. Svetlana Travis, aka Svetlana Zakharova, was charged with grand larceny by extortion, and accused of trying to shake down Spitzer following allegations that he attacked her at The Plaza Hotel. The disgraced governor denied the allegations at the time. Details about the alleged extortion attempt were unavailable. Travis was also charged with second-degree forgery in a separate case in which police said she used the information of a Bloomfield, New Jersey, man to sign a lease agreement that cost him $18,000. Travis had known

Spitzer, 56, “for a period of time” when the two met on Feb. 13 at The Plaza before she planned to return to Russia, his attorney Adam Kaufmann said at the time. “They had a brief and amicable conversation, and then Mr. Spitzer left,” Kaufmann had said in a statement. She later

called and asked him to return and was “highly emotional and was threatening self-harm,” he added. Travis attempted to cancel a 911 call she made saying she cut herself and was having a breakdown in the room the former governor had rented, police said. Kaufmann

confirmed that Travis made the calls and that Spitzer “sought to keep her calm.” The woman was taken to the hospital after police noticed a cut on her arm and broken glass in the room. She told doctors she had a relationship with Spitzer and he had assaulted her, offi-

cials said. She left for Russia the following night. Spitzer wasn’t charged in the incident. Travis is expected to appear Tuesday in Manhattan Criminal Court to face both charges. Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark is expected to handle to the case as Manhattan District At-

torney Cyrus Vance recused himself from the case in February, citing past personal and professional connections to Spitzer, the New York Daily News reported. There was no information as to whether Travis had obtained a lawyer who could comment on the charges in her behalf.

Man injured in Hoboken train crash is suing NJ Transit for safety failures “Somebody help me,” screamed Sheldon Kest, a passenger in the first car of the NJ Transit Pascack Valley train, after it crashed into Hoboken Station on Sept. 29 at 8:45 a.m. Kest, 66, a Tenafly, New Jersey, resident who has been using the system for 50 years, announced Tuesday that he is suing NJ Transit for its safety failures that led to the Hoboken crash and caused his serious injuries and emotional trauma. He suffered a broken nose, deep flesh wounds and his right middle finger had to be partially amputated. He was also recovering from knee surgery at the time of the crash and his healing has

been compromised. Kest is one of 114 people injured in the crash. There was one fatality, Hoboken resident Fabiola Bittar de Kroon, 34, who was standing on the platform and was killed when the ceiling collapsed. Investigators determined from black box data that the train was going nearly twice the speed limit, 10 mph, for a train entering the station. Yet there has been no additional information about why that happened or what could have prevented it. “I need to know, and the public has the right to know, why did it happen? How did it happen? And who should be held accountable so it doesn’t

happen again?” said Kest at the news conference in Newark called by his attorney Tom Kline. The train went “over the bumper block, right through the depot” and came to a stop at a wall just before the station’s waiting area,” Michael Larson, a NJ Transit employee who was one of the first responders at the crash, told reporters during a CNN broadcast. “I don’t think I’ll be able to board another train. Right now, I’m anxious to even ride in a car. I continue to struggle with horrific memories of this tragedy,” Kest said. He described being trapped in the carriage surrounded by wreckage. “Given my recent knee

surgery, there’s just no way I could have hoisted myself through that window. I don’t know what

would have happened without those guys lifting me up,” he said, adding that he looks forward

to the day he can thank them in person. Kline, along with co-counsel from Andrew Duffy, added that “there is no excuse for operating that train at more than twice the speed restriction entering the station, and there is no excuse for the NJT’s deadly deferral of Positive Train Control that every industry operator, expert and government regulator has known for decades prevents these accidents and saves lives.” The lawsuit is seeking an undisclosed amount for damages related to Kest’s numerous doctor’s bills including plastic and orthopedic surgeons and a neurologist.

Mount Sinai Health System announced on Tuesday that Phase 1 of a $500 million project to rebuild Mount Sinai Beth Israel and create the new “Mount Sinai Downtown” network is set to start. The network will expand and renovate three sites of outpatient facilities, according to the hospital, which will stretch from the East River to the Hudson River below 34th Street. The network will include 35 operating and procedure

Mt. Sinai announced that additional renovations will provide specialized services at Union Square, including endoscopy, disease management programs and a Respiratory Institute. PROVIDED

rooms and a network of 16 physician practice locations with more than 600 doctors. The project will be anchored by a new Mount Sinai Beth Israel inpatient hospital, including a new state-of-the-art emergency department, according to the health system. Mount Sinai Beth Israel

will still be open during renovations and the ER will be operational until the new department is ready, the hospital said. “Our more than $500 million investment marks an exciting time, not only for Mount Sinai’s employees and patients, but also the entire Downtown

community, as we truly transform how patients access and receive the health care services they need,” said Dr. Kenneth L. Davis, CEO and president of the Mount Sinai Health System. The project includes plans to strengthen behavioral health services and New York Eye and Ear Infirmary of Mount Sinai will also get a little sprucing up. According to Mount Sinai, all union employees affected by the transformation would be offered other union opportunities at equal pay and so far, more than 150 Mount Sinai Beth Israel hospital employees have accepted new positions at the same or higher salaries with the Mount Sinai Health System. For more information, visit Mount Sinai’s Downtown Transformation website at Mountsinai.org /downtown.

Yankee Stadium After a year of speculation, Chipotle will open its first location in the South Bronx by the end of the year, company spokeswoman Danielle Moore confirmed to DNAinfo without giving a specific opening date. The eatery will be located a few blocks from Yankee Stadium at 260 E. 161st St. in The Melrose Building across from the Bronx County Hall of Justice. The addition of Chipotle to the area, which will be housed in the same building as a recently opened Starbucks, will “inch us closer to being recognized as a place that can support more dining options, more eating options,” Cary Goodman of the 161st Street Business Improvement District told DNAinfo.

Trump says ‘shackles’ are off, assails House speaker, McCain GOP nominee condemned the Republicans who have backed away from his White House run in a barrage of stinging tweets, deepening a dramatic rift in the party over his struggling campaign. Presidential candidate Donald Trump lashed out at U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan and other “disloyal” Republicans on Tuesday and vowed to campaign in whatever style he wants now that the party establishment has largely abandoned him. “It is so nice that the shackles have been taken off me and I can now fight for America the way I want to,” Trump said on Twitter, adding he would engage Democratic rival

Hillary Clinton on his own terms. Describing “disloyal” Republicans as more difficult than Clinton he said, “They come at you from all sides. They don’t know how to win — I will teach them!” A string of Republicans have distanced themselves from Trump since a 2005 video surfaced Friday showing him bragging crudely to a reporter about groping women and making unwanted sexual advances. Ryan, the top Republican in Congress, told party lawmakers Monday he was breaking with Trump and would not campaign for him, all but conceding Clinton would win the Nov. 8 election. The move angered some Trump supporters, although Ryan said he would not withdraw his endorsement of the New York business-

man. Trump slammed Ryan as a “very weak and ineffective leader” and complained in another tweet that it was hard to do well with “zero support” from Ryan and others. He also took aim at Sen. John McCain of Arizona, the Republican presidential nominee in 2008, who said Saturday that he could not vote for Trump. “The very foulmouthed Sen. John McCain begged for my support during his primary (I gave, he won), then dropped me over lockerroom remarks,” Trump said. There was no immediate reaction from McCain, who secured his primary-election win in August. Trump, whose campaign has been marked for months by controversies over both his policies and his brash style, has slipped further behind

Clinton in opinion polls. An NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll taken after a Sunday’s debate and released Tuesday showed Clinton with a nine-point lead on Trump, winning 46 percent of likely voters compared to Trump’s 37 percent. Republican U.S. presidential nominee Donald Trump speaks at a campaign rally in Ambridge, Pennsylvania. Many Republicans are worried his chaotic campaign could hurt their chances of holding majorities in the House of Representatives and Senate in next month’s election, and will inflict long-term damage on the party. In an extraordinary party revolt, nearly half of all 331 incumbent Republican senators, House members and governors have condemned

Trump’s lewd remarks on the video, and roughly one in 10 have called for him to drop out of the race, a Reuters review of official statements and local news coverage indicates. Unlike Ryan, Republi-

can National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus told RNC members Monday that the committee, the party’s leadership and fundraising arm, still backed Trump, two RNC members told Reuters. REUTERS

US justices to weigh detainee suit against Bush officials

P.A.D.

Raises Your Risk of Heart Attack and Stroke

People over age of 50 that have a history of diabetes or smoking and other peripheral artery disease risk factors, such as obesity or high blood pressure, have a greater risk of having PAD.

Do You Have PAD?

Painful cramping in your hip, thigh or calf muscles after walking Leg numbness or weakness Non-healing sores on your toes, feet or legs Coldness in your lower leg or foot Slower growth of your toenails Shiny Skin on your legs No pulse or a weak pulse in your legs or feet

The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to decide whether to block a lawsuit against former Attorney General John Ashcroft and others by non-U.S. citizens, mainly Muslims, swept up after the Sept. 11 attacks who said they were abused in detention. The senior officials under former President George W. Bush, also including former FBI Director Robert Mueller and Immigration and Naturalization Service Commissioner James Ziglar, have asked the justices to reverse a 2015 lower court ruling allowing the long-running suit to proceed. The civil rights lawsuit seeks to hold the former officials responsible for racial and religious profiling and abuse in detention that the plaintiffs said they endured after being detained following the 2001 attacks by al Qaeda Islamic militants on the United States.

The brief order said two justices, liberals Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor, will not participate, meaning only six justices will hear the case. The court remains one justice short following Antonin Scalia’s February death. The suit was filed by a group of Muslim, Arab and South Asian nonU.S. citizens who, their lawyers said, were held as terrorism suspects based on their race, religion, ethnicity and immigration status and abused in detention before being deported. They were charged only with civil immigration violations. But the plaintiffs said they were subjected at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center to 23-hours-a-day solitary confinement, strip searches, sleep deprivation, beatings and other abuses and denied the ability to practice their religion.

They said their rights under the U.S. Constitution to due Mueller process and equal protection under the law were violated. The plaintiffs include Benamar Benatta, an Algerian Muslim who was seeking refugee status in Canada, and Ahmed Khalifa, an Egyptian Muslim who said he was on vacation. During the U.S. Justice Department’s massive investigation after the 2001 attacks, certain immigrants in the country illegally were detained until being cleared of Sept. 11 involvement. The New York-based 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Ashcroft, Mueller and Ziglar could be sued, based on a 1971 Supreme Court ruling. REUTERS

Thirteen civilians and one police officer died and 36 people were wounded, said Ministry of Interior spokesman Sediq Sediqqi. At least 14 people were killed on Tuesday when a gunman in a police uniform opened fire on worshippers gathered at a shrine in the Afghan capital of Kabul for a Shi’ite holy day, officials said. Ministry of Public Health officials said at least 43 people had been injured in the incident and had been taken to hospitals in the city for treatment. The attack began just

before 8 p.m., police said, with witnesses reporting an explosion followed by gunfire. “People were gathered inside the shrine for worshipping when the attackers arrived, first they shot the policemen at the gate of the shrine and then they entered the compound,” said Sardar Hedayat. Anguished worshippers carried the bodies of dead and wounded people from the iconic building, which is covered in brilliant blue tiles. Initial reports put the number of attackers at three, but Sediqqi said police special forces who responded to the scene found and killed only one gunman. The attacker was dressed in a police uniform, said Jamshid Jan, who witnessed the attack. An angry crowd surrounded and kicked at the suspected attacker’s dead body, with some vowing to burn his remains, before police intervened. Security forces at the scene evacuated the shrine as the attack unfolded, said Kabul police chief Abdul Rahman Rahimi.

The attack occurred at one of Kabul’s largest shrines as Shi’ite Muslims gathered to observe the Ashura holy day, which commemorates the 7th century death of a grandson of the prophet Mohammed. There was no immediate claim of responsibility. A Taliban spokesman denied any involvement. Afghanistan’s chief executive, Abdullah Abdullah, condemned the shooting and vowed to “hold terrorists (and) their supporters accountable.” Afghanistan has largely avoided widespread sectarian violence between Sunni and Shi’ite Muslims, but Afghanistan’s Shi’ite minority has complained of discrimination and has faced increased threats. At least 84 people were killed and another 130 injured in a suicide attack on a Shi’ite demonstration in July. That attack, during a protest march in Kabul, was claimed by Islamic State. In 2011, Ashura gatherings were targeted by suicide bombers in Kabul and the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif, killing about 80 people altogether. REUTERS

The Pentagon on Tuesday warned that whoever fired missiles at a U.S. Navy destroyer and an accompanying ship off the coast of Yemen over the weekend had done so “at their own peril,â€? language that suggested preparations for possible retaliation. Two shore-launched cruise missiles, which U.S. officials believe were designed to hit vessels at sea, were fired at the U.S. Navy ships on Sunday from Houthi-controlled territory of Yemen, just north of the Bab al-Mandab Strait. Both failed to hit the ships but the attack, which was first reported by Reuters, could deepen U.S. involvement in Yemen. U.S. military action in the country has largely been reserved for the

battle against al Qaeda’s affiliate, al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, not the Houthis. “Anybody who takes action, fires against U.S. Navy ships operating in international waters, does so at their own peril,â€? Pentagon spokesman Capt. Jeff Davis told a news briefing. Asked whether the Pentagon was developing targets for retaliatory strikes, Davis said: “I’m not confirming that right now.â€? U.S. support for a Saudi Arabia-led coalition battling the Houthis has been reduced in recent months, and had been under review amid growing concerns about civilian casualties in Yemen’s war. It includes refueling Saudi jets that are carrying out strikes. The Houthis, allies of Iran who drove the Western- and Saudi Arabiabacked President Abd Rabbu Mansour al-Hadi from the capital in 2014, have denied firing at the USS Mason guided missile destroyer and the USS Ponce, an amphibious transport dock.

But U.S. officials have told Reuters that Washington is operating under the assumption that Houthi forces fired the cruise missiles on Sunday. Davis suggested as much Tuesday, noting the Houthis had previously acknowledged responsibility for firing on a vessel from the United Arab Emirates a week earlier. â€œThe Houthis have said publicly before that they would target any ships in that area that were supporting the coalition against them,â€? Davis said. “So the facts certainly seem to point to it, but we are still assessing and we will have more for you.â€? The strikes against the UAE and U.S. vessels risks disrupting commercial traffic through the Bab al-Mandab Strait, one of the world’s busiest routes. REUTERS

BRIEF Top court grapples with AppleSamsung iPhone patent feud The Supreme Court signaled a willingness to reduce the potentially huge penalties imposed for ripping off a patented design as it heard arguments in the legal fight over the amount Samsung should pay Apple for copying the iPhone’s distinctive appearance. The eight justices heard arguments by lawyers for the world’s two top smartphone manufacturers, as well as the

U.S. government, in Samsung’s challenge to the $399 million it was forced to pay Apple for violating three patents regarding the iPhone’s rounded-corner front face, bezel and colorful grid of icons. Some of the justices expressed deep skepticism over how, in practice, juries could figure out which part of a product a design applies to, in order to calculate damages for patent infringement.

“If I were a juror, I wouldn’t know what to do,” Justice Anthony Kennedy said. Smartphones like Cupertino, California-based Apple’s iPhone and South Korea-based Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd.’s Galaxy have become an indispensable part of everyday life for many people worldwide, as well as huge business for their makers. As such, the two companies have become increasingly bitter rivals as Samsung seizes an enviable

share of the market. The case came before the Supreme Court on same day Samsung scrapped its flagship Galaxy Note 7 smartphone following reports of the phones catching fire in one of the costliest product safety failures in tech history. The device, launched in August, was supposed to have competed with Apple’s latest iPhone for supremacy in the smartphone market. REUTERS

Wireless carrier Sprint Corp. on Tuesday pledged to provide 1 million high school students with free mobile devices and internet access as part of a White House initiative to expand opportunities for lower income kids. Marcelo Claure, chief executive of Sprint, said the plan builds on the company’s prior commitment through the White House’s ConnectED program to get 50,000 students high speed internet. He said Sprint realized that while providing students with internet at school was helpful, students would still need to be able to use the internet at home. “We are going to equip 1 million kids with the tools they need to reach their full potential and achieve their dreams,” Claure told reporters on a White House call. President Barack Obama will travel to

Greensboro, North Carolina, on Tuesday to participate in a town hall on race and sports and to highlight the administration’s work to improve the lives of disadvantaged youth through its My Brother’s Keeper initiative and other programs. Sprint aims to give cellphones, tablets, laptops or mobile hot spots to students who do not have internet at home. Students would be able to choose the type of device that might meet their needs and it would be coupled with four years of free data plans. The company hopes to reach its goal of a million students in five years. Manufacturers have agreed to provide the mobile devices at no cost, Claure said. He also said the company would encourage customers to donate their old devices to the program and that it would not cost Sprint much to allow the free use of its network. “I think we are working to address a huge problem that we have in our country which is the digital divide and the homework gap,” Claure said. “Most people would assume internet is a given for everyone in the United States and that’s the way it should be, but it’s not.” He said children in more than 5 million U.S. households today lack internet connection at home.

Obama says work has begun on habitats to help humans reach Mars President Barack Obama, highlighting his pledge to send people to Mars by the 2030s, on Tuesday announced further publicprivate efforts to build habitats that could help humans live long-term far from the Earth. “We are working with our commercial partners to build new habitats that can sustain and transport astronauts on longduration missions in deep space. These missions will teach us how humans can live far from Earth — something we’ll need for the long journey to Mars,� Obama said in an opinion piece on CNN’s website. His comments come ahead of a meeting planned by the White House in Pittsburgh this week to team up scientists, students and others to advance the commercial space market,

Like Earth, the so-called Red Planet also has seasons, and a 2012 National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) mission found conditions there once supported microbial life, according to the space agency. It would take about eight months to get there, depending on rocket velocity, according to NASA experts. Efforts to fund the space program have faltered in recent years over concerns about fiscal priorities. As part of the space habitat effort, NASA said on Tuesday it was entering the so-called proving ground stage to demonstrate and test various technologies over the next 10 years. REUTERS

Carson Daly fills in for suspended Billy Bush on “Today” Show It’s been a rough few days for Billy Bush. The TV host’s job is on the line after a video was release last week revealing Bush engaging in a sleazy conversation with Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. In the footage, which was recorded as the two prepared to film a 2005 episode of “Access Hollywood,” Trump made several lewd remarks about women, and Bush egged him on. Not only has the “Today” co-host been suspended from his post as a result, NBC has already found a replacement. Carson Daly filled on Tuesday’s episode. He did an on-ice interview

Kesha files protective order to prevent Dr. Luke from publicizing her medical records Kesha was forced to submit over 900 pages of court-ordered medical documents in the ongoing legal proceedings between herself and Dr. Luke, the producer she accused of sexually, physically and emotionally abusing her in 2014. On Monday, the 29-year-old singer filed a protective order against Dr. Luke to keep the information in those documents — which include “gynecological, psychiatric and rehabilitation records going back more than 10 years” — confidential, according to E! News. Dr.

Luke has rejected the confidentiality request and claims he has a right to use the medical information “without condition.” This is a messy case that has involved lawsuits in multiple states and coming from both sides.

Dr. Luke has vehemently denied all of the allegations made against him, and worked with Sony to force Kesha to continue to work with him under the terms of her contract. We’re side-eyeing him, hard.

Chance the Rapper body slams stage crasher at FL show Chance the Rapper got a surprise Monday night when a crazed fan rushed the stage and grabbed him during his performance of “Finish Line.” But don’t let the name fool you. The 23-year-old rapper wasn’t taking any chances and quickly handled the situation. In a reverse-spin-body-slam move that would make a UFC fighter jealous, Lil Chano (from 79th) took the guy down in under two seconds. TMZ obtained video footage of the incident. Security at the event actually had to help the poor intruder off the ground before escorting him off the stage. Looks like the “No Problem” rapper might not need those dread-headed cronies after all. Maybe he should be on Kim K’s new muscle team.

You can say a lot of things about the Kardashian/ Jenner clan, their line of work and the means through which they get the job done. But one undeniable fact about the high-profile family is that they stick together. We could feel this when Kris Jenner took to Instagram to share that she is “blessed” and “grateful for [her] family.” She also

On Tuesday, the reality star apprear on “Ellen,” where she shared that Kim is “not doing that well” and describes the events in Paris as “incredibly traumatic.” Khloe also took time to thank fans for their love and support. She confirmed that the family is considering toning down their social media presence as a security measure. “It is important to maybe make those adjustments ... and to pull back a little bit I think is always smart.” All of this forces us to consider: What is Snapchat without the Kardashians?

Walk on the weird side Newtown Creek Nature Walk

“The Brooklyn Nobody Knows� author William B. Helmreich lays out a memorable tour.

The obsession with exploring New York City started with a game called “Last Stop.� Beginning at age 9, William B. Helmreich and his father would hop on a random subway line and ride it until the very end, where they would get off to walk around for a while. “We did this for years,� says Helmreich, now a professor of sociology at City College of New York. “Once we ran out of last stops, we went to the second-to-last stop, and then the third-to-last stop, and so on.� Helmreich continues to spend his free time exploring the city, block by block, with no clear destination. He affectionately calls it “the world’s largest outdoor museum� and is writing a walking guide to each borough. First up is “The Brooklyn Nobody Knows,� out this week, for which Helmreich walked all of Brooklyn’s 44 neighborhoods — a total of 816 miles, guided by strangers along the way and his own unrelenting curiosity. We asked Helmreich for some of his favorite places to get you started.

Don’t joke about Trump Edgar Ramirez talks “The Girl on the Train� and the decline of political discourse. MATT PRIGGE @mattprigge

matt.prigge@metro.us

“I do movies for personal reasons,� Edgar Ramirez tells us. Before he was in Hollywood movies, the Venezuelan actor was a journalist, and spent much of his life traveling the globe with his father, a soldier. When he started appearing in films, like “Domino,� “Zero Dark Thirty,� “Joy� and especially “Carlos,� he

always did so because he connected with them on a deep level. As such, he sees a lot in “The Girl in the

GETTY IMAGES

Train,� the splashy film version of Paula Hawkins’ mega-best seller about a lonely woman (Emily Blunt) who gets involved in the case of a missing woman (Haley Bennett). Ramirez, 39, has a small role in the film: He plays the therapist to the AWOL girl, who becomes one of the possible suspects. Emily Blunt’s character is prone to stalking and spying, which is something that technology has made easier. But I’d argue social media can create real connections, as well as fake ones. I don’t see technology as a threat. First of all, it’s inevitable. I remember people being afraid of cellphones in the ’90s. I remember my first years of college, when some of my classmates bought phones, they were ostracized. They were laughed at and bullied. Then two years later everyone had a Nokia. For me, it’s nothing but resistance

to change. Because it’s frightening — change is terrifying. You’re leaving your comfort zone. Where social media is going to take us has yet to be seen. We’re only seeing the beginning of it. Right now, it’s a doubleedged sword. It can be helpful but also activate our worst instincts. There’s this fake assumption that everything that is trending will necessarily have an impact and change things. When a social event is trending, the reality is: so are cats. It’s not access to technology that changes things; it’s how you use that technology. You still need to do the groundwork of getting your hands dirty to achieve change. Before social media, when you knew about something, it was probably because progress was already happening. Now, knowing about something doesn’t necessarily mean progress is taking place.

In “The Girl on the Train,� Edgar Ramirez plays the therapist treating a woman (Haley Bennett) who goes missing. DREAMWORKS PICTURES

We often joke about things like Donald Trump. It’s therapeutic but it can also run the danger of trivializing them. That’s another problem: Everything’s becoming a joke. That is very dangerous, because that takes away from debate. Everything’s becoming so infantile; everything’s supposed to be a joke. Everything’s supposed to be a sound-bite or 140 characters, a meme. Those are fun; I send

and receive memes and I laugh at them. But what’s going on here in the U.S. is not foreign to me at all. I come from Venezuela, and I’ve seen what’s happening here. I’ve seen how damaging populists, of any kind, of any ideology, can be, and the damage they inflict on society. What happens is you simplify everything so that they’re easier to manipulate. It’s very subversive, and not in a cool way.

Iliza Shlesinger talks female empowerment in ‘Confirmed Kills’ The new Netflix comedy special is now streaming.

Uproariously funny comedian Iliza Shlesinger is back on Netflix with her latest comedy special, “Confirmed Kills,” covering everything from the black hole of a woman’s purse to finally putting an end to our obsession with mermaids. This time around, however, the 33-year-old star is more than funny voices and side-splitting humor. Shlesinger aims to use her platform to drive meaningful conversations with her audience, too. She chatted with us from her home in Los Angeles about her career beginnings and using comedy

to help women. When did you decide you wanted to do comedy professionally? I always knew I was going to be funny for a living. Growing up in the suburbs of Dallas, I didn’t have access to comedy clubs, but I think I just got it where I could. I’d

take in a lot of TV, a lot of sitcoms, a lot of sketch shows and then you find other like minded kids and you form an improv troupe. I knew I was going to be funny for a living but I didn’t know what that was going to look like. You add a lot of physical-

NETFLIX

ity to your comedy. What inspires it? It’s sort of baked into our brains as Americans. We know bad guys flinch over, witches have creepy teeth and bony fingers. My body naturally forms to the idea of a cartoon I have in my mind and it comes out onstage and helps get the point across.

What makes “Confirmed Kills” different from your last Netflix special, “Freezing Hot”? When I finished “Freezing Hot,” I remember feeling like I didn’t get out everything I wanted to say and that I was moving toward saying something more uplifting versus just making fun of girls. There was this fire that got lit in me where I was like, ‘If I keep just making fun of girls and we’re all laughing at ourselves, eventually I might become part of the problem.’ I found myself wanting to help women by defending them and say, ‘Here’s why we think the way we do and here’s why the world is scary to us.’ But do it in a way that girls had fun and men

didn’t feel alienated. You dived deeper into issues facing women on this one. Here’s what’s tough. I’m a white girl from an upper middle class family and I’ve never been overweight so I can’t stand there like, ‘Life is great. Love your body. F— the haters.’ That’s not the reality for most, but just because I seem one way to you doesn’t mean I don’t have my own things that I’ve battled. I’ve been put down for having opinions. I’ve been called names because I’m a girl or because I’m Jewish or for whatever reason. My whole life I’ve just had this thing in me where I’ve never had a reason to listen when somebody tells me to be quiet. “Confirmed Kills” is now available for streaming on Netflix.

Honey, he’s good Andy Grammer is just fine with writing love songs about love, thank you very much. RACHEL RACZKA @rachelraczka

rachel.raczka@metro.us

Andy Grammer says he and Gavin DeGraw are on a “bromance of a tour.” “I remember being a huge fan of ‘Chariot’ during the end of my first year in college,” he says. “I love that record. And I’m not just a big fan, we’re really good friends, too. Our bands are really tight; some of his band members played with me for a while, and vice versa.” Following up on “Fine By Me” and “Keep Your Head Up,” the singersongwriter’s 2014 sophomore album, “Magazines

or Novels,” featured the triple-platinum, temptation-thwarting toe-tapper, “Honey, I’m Good.” Now Grammer, 32, is promoting “Fresh Eyes,” another effervescent feel-good single about finding new reasons to love the ones we love. He called in from the bus between Nashville and Ohio to discuss his upcoming third album, his songwriting process and why he’s cool with his love-positive lyrics. How far along are you with the third album? It’s definitely hard to say, but writingwise, I’m in the third quarter. I like to write about 100 songs. I’m coming up around 75. That’s a lot of songs. Is this your normal process? I don’t know. I did it

for my last album, and “Honey I’m Good” was the 101st song I wrote. So I guess I don’t want to stop just yet. [Laughs] Do you ever go back to those other 80 or 90 songs that didn’t make the cut? Sometimes you reuse them, but usually you’ve

just done better than them and that’s what makes the album. My analogy is when you see a movie with the most amazing chase scene, but the rest of the story isn’t the best. That’s kind of what those songs are. It’s like a Jason Bourne movie.

Totally. The thing about art is that when it’s done right, it’s kind of effortless. Sometimes you write things that are effortless when they come out, but you have to painstakingly go through 20 or more to get to that one. They also say, with art, you can’t say whether it’s good or bad, and I think that’s kind of not true. When I was a street performer sometimes people stopped and sometimes people didn’t stop. There’s a science to it. You have it or you don’t. Do you think your time busking plays a role in your life as an artist now? I think it does do a little bit for me — knowing that you either provide a service for someone or not. When I was performing on the street, I could feel the moments where there’s a service being done and someone is giving their attention versus [when] you’re just giving

to their ears. One of the two are happening. So “Fresh Eyes” is the single from the forthcoming album that’s out right now, and it’s about reinforcing an already existing relationship. How did that angle come about? When you’re in a relationship for a longer period of time, you have to rediscover a person. It just happens in every good relationship. There are those moments when you’re like, “Oh shoot, I don’t fully know you,” and that makes it so much more fully interesting. You’ve sort of become the poster child for healthy, happy relationships. I guess, but it’s funny though. You look at Adam Levine, who can have a bunch of hits about tortured love. Why can’t I just have ones about solid love?

An artist’s rendering of a currently in-progress passive home in Massachusetts.

A different kind of smart house Passive homes aim to boost economic benefits in the long run.

5 passive home features:

MEGAN JOHNSON @megansarahj

1. Insulation: At least twice as thick as today’s code requires. 2. Air leakages: No holes of any kind. Windows and doors are made with triple-pane glass. While they can be opened, that isn’t necessary in order to get fresh air. 3. No thermal bridges: No way for the warmth inside the house to get outside. 4. Face the south: All homes face south to optimize sunlight and external shading. 5. Fresh air: Through using an energy recovery ventilation system, fresh air is constantly pumped in, even with the windows closed.

AUBURNDALE BUILDERS

Forget confusing gadgets and robotic accessories. The “smart house” that’s changing the way homes are built is one that’s energy efficient. Called “passive homes,” these spaces utilize solar panels, ondemand hot water heaters, superinsulation and moisture barriers to cut their energy use, and cutting your monthly utility bills drastically. Building and Remodelers Association of Greater Boston member Nick Falkoff is constructing a 4,500-square-foot luxury passive home in Wayland, Massachusetts. “Passive housing has been operational in Europe for over 25 years, and is becoming a serious consideration for people concerned about climate change, energy conservation and health in the U.S.,” says Falkoff, whose project, which will be completed in November, will feature an open con-

cept layout, vaulted ceilings, oversized windows and seamless door frames. First coined in Germany in 1991, a passive house doesn’t require a hot water heater to keep showers and faucets producing piping hot water. Instead, necessities like hot water are available

“on demand.” Instead of holding hot water in the pipes, an on-demand or “tankless” hot water heater doesn’t turn on until you turn the faucet. The system pulls cold water through a pipe to a heating unit, and sends it to the tap or shower. Plummeting heating and cooling bills is the biggest incentive for those considering building a passive home. With triple pane windows and double insulation, the home is keeping cold air out in the winter and constantly pumping fresh air in during the warm weather. Building one is still an expensive task, but advocates say the benefits outweigh the costs. “There is a difference in cost building a passive house, but the difference is typically offset by the return on investment,” says Falkoff. “Many factors need to be taken into consideration when determining savings to the consumer, one of the least discussed benefits are health. Living in an environment where the air is always fresh and dust-free adds a level of benefit that is difficult to measure.”

Re-tooled Rangers will look to make a run The Rangers’ rivals caught up to them last season. DENIS GORMAN @DenisGorman sports@metro.us

The scene was the media conference room inside the Madison Square Garden Training Facility in suburban Greenburgh At the podium was Rangers head man Alain Vigneault, answering questions on the first day of training camp about the 2016-17 New York Rangers. Like all executives, coaches and players, Vigneault was optimistic about his team. “I can feel the energy, I feel a refreshed group.” Vigneault said. “We still believe that we’re a very strong hockey team. We’ve got some very good experience — some guys that have played big games, important games, big minutes. We’ve got some younger guys who are developing who are improving. Now that we’re adding younger guys, we’ve got a couple role players who can help us. I see good speed, which is something that I like. I like to play a fast, high tempo game. We’d like to continue that.” But after a 2015-16 season in which the Rangers

Jimmy Vesey was a key addition in the offseason for the Rangers. GETTY IMAGES

were passed — both on the ice and in the standings — by rivals, the questions about this year’s edition are whether they can play at the level and tempo associated by Vigneault’s 2013-14 and 2014-15 teams. Those questions will be answered over the course of the 82 game regular season campaign. But following a first round series loss to eventual Stanley Cup Champion Pittsburgh, in which the Rangers were

“I like to play a fast, high-tempo game. We’d like to continue that.” Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault

shown to be shockingly ill-equipped and uncompetitive, general manager Jeff Gorton spent the off-season retooling his team. Derick Brassard and the negotiating rights to Keith Yandle were traded to Ottawa and Florida, respectively. In

return, the Rangers got Mika Zibanejad, a 2018 second round draft pick, a 2016 sixth-round draft pick and a 2017 fourthround draft pick. Moreover, Pavel Buchnevich signed his entry-level contract, while reigning Hobey Baker winner Jimmy Vesey

agreed to a free agent pact with the Rangers. Buchnevich, Vesey and Zibanejad join a forward group that includes J.T. Miller, Rick Nash, Chris Kreider, Derek Stepan, Mats Zuccarello and Kevin Hayes. It is a deep and skilled forward corps, which should allow Vigneault to be able to roll four lines, which is in line with his philosophies. In goal, Henrik Lundqvist is a known commodity. Even at 34, Lundqvist compiled a 2.48

goals against average and .920 save percentage despite having faced more shots (1,944 according to NHL.com) and more high danger shots (397 according to analytical website Corsica.hockey) than any goalie in 2015-16. For as strong as the forwards and Lundqvist are, the defense — which had long been an organizational strength — is a significant question. Without Yandle and the retired Dan Boyle, the blue line lacks a puck moving, offensive defenseman. Both Dan Girardi and Marc Staal will return despite each having a subpar 2015-16. And the quartet of Adam Clendening, Brady Skjei, Nick Holden and Dylan McIlrath spent the preseason battling for the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth defensemen slots. Vigneault was asked about having Clendening and Holden play on their off-hand. Vigneault favors having his defensemen play on their strong side. “We could have had three left-handed defensemen and three right handed defensemen,” he said. “We were just looking at different options we could have going forward in terms of sixth, seventh, eighth defensemen. It was something we thought we needed to see.”

Jets’ ‘O’ needs to give Marshall help Following Sunday’s disappointing showing in Pittsburgh, the Jets seemingly have holes all along the dam. What was once a competitive outing, with the Jets taking a slight 13-7 lead with 2:06 remaining in the first half, eventually turned into a runaway 31-13 defeat. So far, there hasn’t been anyone out there to pick up the slack for Brandon Marshall, who amazingly has still found a way to be successful despite the extra attention shown his way. The Jets are undermanned and have been out-executed — and Sunday was a prime example. Pittsburgh put on a clinic of long scoring drives, with four going at least 75

yards. Meanwhile, New York was shy at matching the Steelers’ bravado. The Jets punted twice in the fourth quarter while down 11, once on fourth-and-1 at its own 34-yard line, and again on fourth-and-2 near midfield. Bowles said even in hindsight, he felt both decisions warranted caution — despite no earlier proof that the Jets’ defense had any answer for the Steelers. The evidence was the 12-play, 79-yard drive following the second white flag that iced the win for the home team. Bowles can be flippant when saying that “time travel doesn’t work in life,” when discussing controversial decisions and missed opportuni-

ties, but he should be very concerned that his offense seems to stay behind in the locker room after halftime. During the four losses, the offense has mustered a total of 13 points after the break. They’ve been blanked by both the Steelers and Chiefs in the second halves, scored just six points against the Bengals in the opener, and just seven against the Seahawks. That’s an average of barely more than a field goal scored per game in the second half. Bowles insists the offense seems to improve and have “good practices” during the week leading up to the games. The problem, he deemed, is

that for whatever reason guys haven’t been able to “transfer that to Sundays” — although the head man wouldn’t use miscommunication as a reason. Regardless, it’s a nagging problem that’s aided in the Jets’ current standing, and one that seems to dig them a deeper hole each week. Gailey, though, alluded to some lapses in communication which has caused the offensive lapses. “As I have said, this is a we thing, and some can be pinned on me. Communication is the key for us all to be on the same page all of the time,” Gailey reasoned. “We all have got to be on the same page and do a Brandon Marshall hasn’t received much help this season. GETTY IMAGES better job.” TONY WILLIAMS

NFL power rankings | by Luke Miller No. 3

No. 1

No. 6

Lock it down. The Vikings will be undefeated coming out of their bye when Sam Bradford returns to Philly. It will be the biggest test yet for Bradford, who has done everything the Vikings have asked of him. No. 2

No. 12

Eagles (3-1)

Raiders (4-1)

Texans (3-2)

Redskins (3-2)

Le’Veon Bell has over 150 total yards in each of his two games back from suspension, and hasn’t even been the most integral cog as the Steelers rain bombs on opposing defensive backs.

The first loss, the first interception, the first questioning of sensation Carson Wentz? Hardly. With a monstrous out-of-division schedule coming, the Eagles need to take advantage in the NFC East.

If Oakland wants to prove it belongs in the discussion for the AFC West crown, they have to take care of business at home. Oakland has to win this weekend against a decent Chiefs team.

A lot of teams have looked bad on offense against the Vikings, but boy did the Texans manage to look bad. The bigger issue is allowing a Vikings offense to mow through their defense.

Without being particularly impressive along the way, Washington has turned an 0-2 start around to carry a threegame win streak into their Week 6 game against Philadelphia.

No. 7

No. 10

Broncos (4-1)

Seahawks (3-1)

Cowboys (4-1)

Chiefs (2-2)

Ravens (3-2)

Cam Newton, Andrew Luck, Andy Dalton, Jameis Winston, Matt Ryan. The Broncos are 4-1 trotting out Trevor Siemian and Paxton Lynch against those quarterbacks. That’s pretty impressive.

After Denver’s defense failed, the Seahawks’ stud unit will have the next crack at stopping the Falcons and Matt Ryan. They’ve had a week to prepare, so the game plan should be ready.

The Ezekiel Elliott train has firmly left the station after 134 yards on just 15 carries Sunday. The Cowboys offense is rolling, and they’re rolling without Tony Romo and Dez Bryant. Dallas leads the NFC East.

The Chiefs have had a week to think about how a defense that intercepted Ryan Fitzpatrick six times two weeks ago let Ben Roethlisberger do whatever he wanted without being contested one week ago.

Two home losses in a row is frustrating for the once 3-0 Ravens. If they trusted Terrance West enough to release Justin Forsett for the second time in a month, they should trust him enough to run the ball more than 11 times.

No. 8

No. 11

No. 14

Falcons (4-1)

Patriots (4-1)

Packers (3-1)

Bills (3-2)

Bengals (2-3)

It’s hard to write the Falcons off after their latest win. Nothing says “we’re for real� quite like marching into the home of the undefeated defending Super Bowl champs and thoroughly outplaying them.

Welcome back, Tom Brady. In his first game with new toy Martellus Bennett, Brady found Bennett for each of his three touchdown passes. A tougher matchup looms this week against the Bengals.

A visit from the Cowboys next week suddenly looks much more challenging than it may have initially, but the Vikings’ bye week allows the Packers a chance to gain some ground in the division.

The reinvigoration of the Bills has everything to do with the reinvigoration of LeSean McCoy. He had 150 yards on 18 carries last week and is one of the NFL’s premier runners when healthy.

The Bengals offense has looked like a different animal in several different games this year. After running the offense through A.J. Green against Miami a week ago, they found him just four times Sunday. It didn’t work.

metro.us/horoscopes Aries Even if you’re used to making all the rules, abide by the will of the majority. If you don’t, you could be attacked for defending an untenable position.

Libra Be extremely selective regarding any social invitations you might receive. There’s a strong chance you could get caught up in a group of people that you won’t like at all.

Taurus When it comes to career situations, keep your guard up and be ready to fight or change course. Opposition from several unexpected sources is extremely probable.

Scorpio Both you and your special someone must be of the same mind-set. Discord could occur if one decides something without the consent of the other.

Gemini Do not discuss your ideas with others, especially with someone who is known to plagiarize. This person will be true to form.

Sagittarius Generally, you love endeavors of a mental nature, but since your powers of concentration are not apt to be up to par currently, you should be careful.

Cancer Be careful about getting involved in a tricky financial arrangement. It could be a ploy to demand an even larger cash outlay from all participants in the near future.

Capricorn Don’t open your wallet to someone who never makes good on debts. If you do, you’ll just be reinforcing this person’s bad habit.

Leo Avoid teaming up with an individual who is known to be underhanded. You won’t be very comfortable watching this person operate.

Aquarius Don’t let a co-worker whose abilities are not up to your standards become empowered to dictate the collective course of action. Be firm and remain in control.

Virgo Guard against a strong inclination to make things much harder on yourself than they need to be. A tendency to do so would definitely impede your progress.

Pisces If you are impelled to work on tasks that you find distasteful, there’s a chance your performance won’t be up to its usual high standard. EUGENIA LAST
